BARNACLE STAFF o uillt paper? Wfhats that? . Wliim h is the activity sheets? . . . Three different people went to one mer- ch int for an ad. We can't have that! . . . Nfiy I hive a pass for seventh period? . . if k ' l'u:h up your glasses? . egeimii Quiet down! , . . gs O the Binvztzrfe Staff, these statements are familiar. But as the initial con- fusion dissolved, we could see the yearbook grow into a tangible object. Through the prodding of our Chief Editors. Thomas Hadley and Marilyn Jacobson, the underlings produced the material necessary for printing dead- lines. The Senior personals were written under the leadership of Deborah Howes and Judith Lagergren, sports articles were done by Mary Lewis and Robert Behlman and activity reports were prepared by Elaine Murphy. Art Editor Helen George set up the advertising section, while Brooks Kelley adorned the Bizrmzcfe in his own inimitable fashion. The difficult task of group photographing was ably handled by Carol Vanliuren. Then, all of the material was typed by judy Higgins. None of this would have been possible, however, if Sheldon Segerman, advised by Mrs. Wfaldman, had not conducted the unusually successful adver- tising campaign. To these two individuals and their crew, we owe a debt of gratitude.
